The Haunting Indie Adventure Lifeless Planet Migrates To Xbox One
Stage 2 Studios’ indie title let players explore a mysterious alien planet as a lost astronaut with emotional baggage. Now that little wounded astronaut has wandered onto consoles.
Lifeless Planet was a Kickstarter-funded action/adventure game that came out last June for both PC and Mac. Game Informer's Kyle Hilliard gave it a 7.75, but you can read the full review for more details. If you missed it last year, you can check it out when it hits Xbox One on May 13.
Confirmed! Lifeless Planet on @XboxOne in 2 weeks (May 13)! https://t.co/iI918yrNVW @ID_Xbox pic.twitter.com/0e3Wcr20Fk

Our Take
Lifeless Planet wasn't one of my favorite games of the year, but it did some interesting things, and it's always nice to see small developers succeed. Hopefully this move to Xbox One will help Stage 2 Studios keep making games.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
